Multi-GPU Solver
The multi-GPU solver distributes and manages the combined memory of multiple GPU cards within a single system. This overcomes memory limitations and boosts performance, enabling large-scale simulations involving tens of millions of particles.
Realistic Particle Shapes
Simulate systems with real particle shapes and sizes, including both spherical and non-spherical shapes, shells, and fibers. Default shapes are available for immediate use or modification, and custom shapes can be imported. Fiber particles can be of any length, flexible or rigid, and breakable.
Advanced Wear Modeling
Ansys Rocky models surface wear and particle breakage with high accuracy, incorporating factors such as particle shape, size, and material properties.
This capability aids in predicting equipment lifespan and maintenance requirements, enhancing operational efficiency.
CFD-DEM Coupling
The software integrates computational fluid dynamics (CFD) with discrete element modeling (DEM) to assess fluid-particle interactions.
Coupling with Ansys Fluent enables advanced multiphysics simulations, useful for non-spherical particles and varied size distributions. It handles cases where fluid affects particle flow or vice versa.
FEA Coupling
Integrate the Discrete Element Method (DEM) with Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to simulate transient scenarios, including dynamic geometry and time-varying boundary loads.
Export the resulting load data as a pressure field for in-depth analysis in Ansys Mechanical, enhancing accuracy in evaluating structural responses.
Electromagnetic Coupling
Coupling DEM with electromagnetic field simulations through Ansys Maxwell allows for the analysis of particle interactions influenced by electromagnetic, electrostatic, or turbocharging effects. This integration highlights particle behavior, including attraction based on charge.
Multibody Dynamics
Ansys Rocky supports complex geometry movements, including translational, rotational, vibrational, swinging, crushing, and free-body motions. Its integrated motion kernel enables combined geometry motions, while advanced configurations can be achieved through coupling with Ansys Motion for enhanced motion analysis.
Smoothed-Particle Hydrodynamics
Using a mesh-free Lagrangian approach, the SPH (Smoothed-Particle Hydrodynamics) method models fluids in fluid-particle simulations. This technique accounts for fluid effects on particles in scenarios with high solid content and free surface flows, supported by a GPU-based solver for enhanced computational efficiency.
